Tag: mr robot

I've been playing the Mr Robot phone app game, 1.51exfiltrati0n.apk (.ipa on iOS), which would be fun if I wasn't so worried that the damn thing crashed again. The game, from Night Sky Studio (partnered with Telltale Games) simulates a text messaging system.: you find a phone and start receiving texts on it. The gameplay is done through your responses to the texts. It's like a choose-your-own-adventure book that way. A cool thing: although the game is called "Mr. Robot" on the app's icon, the notifications on your actual phone come from "ECorp Messaging", the faux-app inside the game.
While the game is described as a real time game, it's actually just keyed off of timed events: you end a conversation with D, and then one hour later, E texts you. The frustrating thing is because these gaps exist, I don't know if I'm waiting on the next message or if I'm in a strange game state where I can't advance...
